Put-in-Bay, Ohio, on South Bass Island has been an ideal stopping point for boaters ever since Native Americans “put in at the bay” during their many journeys across Lake Erie. Since 1864 the island has been a tourist destination and 
hundreds of thousands of visitors have enjoyed the small town quality and quaintness of this island resort community every year.
More than three-quarters of a million visitors visit the downtown area each season and enjoy the Victorian era buildings that dominate Delaware Avenue. Put-in-Bay offers a wide variety of activities for the entire family: A narrated island tour, charter fishing, nine holes of golf, a visit to our 6,000 square foot historical museum, a helicopter tour, biplane rides, a tour of an historic island press house, a visit to our Butterfly House, boating, sailing, swimming, a Nature Trail,18 holes of miniature golf, gem mining, an antique car museum, para-sailing, cave tours, go-kart racing, two wineries, beautiful vineyards, excellent dining, RC car racing, a stop at the Perry Memorial’s Visitors Center, a visit to the Nature Museum, kayaking, jet skiing, fishing, and a visit to our aquatic resource center.
There’s also an eclectic mix of shops, each independently owned and filled with unique items. During the afternoon and evening you’ll find a wide selection of musical entertainment. We also have more than 55 lodging members, so after all that activity you can spend a restful night.
On the island you’ll find us in The Depot on the corner of Delaware and Toledo avenues where the downtown bus and the Island Tour Train are located. The downtown bus transports passengers from the Miller Ferry and the Jet Express dock is located just a block away.
We hope you enjoy your visit. And we invite you to “Celebrate Island Style” when you visit Put in Bay.
